Elle,

Patience my dear!  I'm thinking about filming a DVD for next
Christmas, "Mr. Springer Goes To Washington".  Wanna invest?  So this
pleasant looking couple were just the victims of a misunderstanding.
Fine!  Once, just once, could we pick up a rock in the vicinity of
I-One and NOT find a radical?  These people keep funny company.

So the Salahis are fakes and phoney. And that makes them different,
how?  Seems like they're pretty hopey and changey to me.

Brad
